R.E.M. - Accelerate (Deluxe Version) - Redhead Walking
Out there are silver dressed darlings
And ramen mein delights
When ginger hair gets all fired up
She beats them in the night
That redhead walking, uh
Don't get close
She'll warn you with her growl
She's a bud cuttin', star studded, leather chested girl
Out there a redhead walkin'
Redhead walkin'

I used to care so much about what
about what others think about
Almost didn't have a thought of my own
The slightest remark would make me embark
On the journey of self doubt
But that was a while ago
This girl has got stronger
If I knew then ...

Lovely Laughter
Originally uploaded by mongoliandeathworm
We crimson-topped folk have suffered over 800 years of discrimination all because of our golden locks. For hundreds of years literary references warn against the unlucky and/or evil nature of people with red hair. The Proverbs of Alfred warned as early as the 1200's that 'the ...

Redhead
Originally uploaded by heartfirewolf
brilliant shafts of sunlight,
once shadowed by blackened thunderheads,
now burst through openings in emptied brokenness
streaking sky with gleaming, vertical hue
each beam,
each golden shard of flaming magnificence,
falls tenderly upon basking, fairest flesh below
with lingering blush,
and conjures flecks of melanin,
aroused,
like assemblies of browning worshipers,
enshrined in ivory temple
so that longing eyes,
nearly ...

THAT red-haired girl, with azure eye___
Just now I saw her tripping by!
What makes me start and tremble so?
'Tis not that red-'haired girl, I know!

Autumn Fires
In the other gardens
And all up the vale,
From the autumn bonfires
See the smoke trail!
Pleasant summer over
And all the summer flowers,
The red fire blazes,
The gray smoke towers.
Sing a song of seasons!
Something bright in all!
Flowers in the summer,
Fires in the fall!
by Robert Louis Stevenson

Ten thousand flowers in spring,
the moon in autumn,
a cool breeze in summer,
snow in winter.
If your mind isn't clouded
by unnecessary things,
this is the best season of your life.

The Greatest Gift...
Originally uploaded by julsatmidnight
Light up the Fire
I gaze into the heart, lowly it may be,
Thought the words be higher still.
For the heart is all the substance,
The speech an accident.
How many phrases will you speak,
Too many for me.
How much burning, burning will you feel,
Be friendly with the fire, enough ...
